Phone Number:	8312460160
Callsign:	W3AB
Category:	MISC
Heading:	1927 VIBROPLEX SEMI-AUTOMATIC (BUG) KEY
Ad Message:	PLEASE READ THE COMPLETE AD. IF YOU ARE READING THIS AD, THE ITEM)S) IS(ARE) STILL AVAILABLE This is a well used 1927 Vibroplex Standard that is fully operational. Not restored, so it has the original patina, well polished through time. It comes in its case that is functional, the leather handle broke some time ago in use, then the replacement fabric handle parted its ways. Hey, it's 99 years old. This was sold previously, the UPS goons used it for rugby practice, so it was returned. The ends of the case were detached but the bug was fine. A testament to their build quality. I reglued the case ends. This will be packed so it won't bounce around in the case. PRICE: $250.00 USD shipped CONUS. I accept Venmo or Paypal F&F. No returns due to parts swappers. 73 de W3AB

Your Response to this Ad:

Due to the amount of non-ham scammers trying to respond to the ads, I am now asking a simple question that ham operators should easily be able to answer, but scammers may not know the answer: What is the number that hams use to represent the phrase "Best Regards"? This number is typically transmitted by hams at the end of a QSO.
Best Regards:
